RS1A R3G

Single Diodes Overview

The RS1A R3G is a silicon rectifier diode manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Corporation. It features a single element configuration housed in the DO-214AC (SMA) plastic package with two pins. The device supports a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 1000V and an average forward rectified current of 1A. It operates within a junction temperature range from -55°C to +150°C. The component complies with RoHS standards and is classified under JEDEC-95 code DO-214AC.

Single Diodes Feature Summary

• High voltage blocking capability suitable for general-purpose rectification
• Glass passivation for junction protection against mechanical stress
• Compliant with RoHS directives and free of halogenated substances

Single Diodes Applications

• General purpose rectification in power supplies
• Reverse polarity protection circuits
• Freewheeling diodes in inductive load switching

Single Diodes Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R3G' against the official Taiwan Semiconductor datasheet to confirm exact marking codes and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required packaging format and compliance documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Single Diodes Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1000V rated SMA packaged diode is required for high-voltage DC applications. Confirm that the 1A continuous current rating meets the circuit load requirements and that the thermal management allows for operation within the specified 150°C junction temperature limit.

Single Diodes Part Context

This part belongs to the RS1 series of glass-passivated fast recovery rectifiers produced by Taiwan Semiconductor. The series utilizes planar chip technology for robust performance. The SMA package provides a compact footprint for surface-mount assembly, distinguishing it from through-hole alternatives in the same voltage class.

Single Diodes Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with Vishay RS1M or STMicroelectronics MUR1100 only if electrical parameters and pinout compatibility are verified. Ensure substitute components match the DO-214AC package dimensions and meet identical voltage and current ratings.
